Well I want to get into PCP so i'm getting a Benjamin Marauder. Is there any suggestion for a scope for this rifle?

Search the Marauder posts here, and you'll find a wide range of scopes being used.  Most of us prefer variable power scopes with higher magnifications to make the most of its PCP long-range capability.  I have a 6-24X50 on mine, and have seen where others have 32X or better glass.  You don't have to use an airgun-rated scope because the Marauder doesn't have a springer's kick, and 2-piece mounts are needed to clear the magazine.  AO capability with as close-in focusing as you can get is great for those shorter-range shots.

ok, thanks, i ended up getting a Leapers 5th Gen 4-16x50AO Rifle Scope. Close range and a nice far sight as well. Maybe not as good as 24x but it'll do the job. Thanks again!

Good choice!  I have two Leapers scopes, a 3-9X32 AO and a 6X32 AO Bug Buster.  Love 'em both.  My Marauder's scope is a Brunton (the company is better known for binoculars and other outdoor gear) which was being closed out by Natchez, so I got it for a really good price.

I have a 32x on my Marauder but 24x is perfect
